Little Legwarmers


These are the legwarmers I made for my niece. Her mother wanted white, so I added little buttons to give them some flare. They worked up super quick and look adorable on! Here's what I did:

Little Legwarmers

CO 32 sts on size 7 dpn's.

Work K1, P1 for 1 inch. Continue in St st until piece measures 9".

Switch to K1, P1 ribbing again and continue for 2". (I left the bottom a little longer to stay on her socks and to put over her shoes a tad) They really looked cute like that!

BO all sts. weave in ends. Sew on buttons or whatever other embellishments you'd like! I also thought they'd look cute with some of the decorative buttons you see everywhere, but I wanted a more vintage look for these ones!

Hi! These are so cute! Can I ask how old your neice is? I'd love to make a couple pairs for my neices, but am not sure the size. =) Thanks!
